What's the most private way to create & use Instagram? (lemmy.one)

I have to create one for personal reasons. I know it's inherently un-private, but how can I maximize privacy while creating & using it without running into problems?

I’m no expert but I would say get a purpose specific email with no similarity to your actual email, landscape as profile, only follow and communicate to the accounts you have to follow, if you can afford a second mobile device for it and no other personal info that would probably be wise. I’m sure someone will have better techniques I haven’t had an Instagram in a while so you may not be able to do some of those
